Yeah and there are also plenty casual players that want to try thier hand at the game that is so cool that they see on TV, and are willing (and able) to blow a couple of hundred of their paycheck for entertainment. A lot of these guys will bust out quickly, but we have all seen fish that run lucky hand after hand, and take down pot after pot. Eventually sharks will take these guys down, but that thrill of winning will bring those guys back.
I'm not sure that poorer players are going anywhere. There is another thread about this on this forum with anecdotes about kids playing Hold em for fun, but are not reading books and informing themselves about the game. Is this a new generation of fish? Maybe. I hope so.
